Season one of Sweet Magnolias ended on a massive cliffhanger and by the sound of it, a season two is looking likely.

The Netflix drama follows a group of friends living in South Carolina. They support each other through thick and thin and at the end of season one, they end up in a terrible car crash.

Showrunner Sherl Anderson has revealed that she is a big fan of the show and would love to keep making episodes. The series is based on the 11-book series from Sherryl Woods so there is plenty of source material.

“There are 11 books so I would happily live in Serenity forever,” Anderson said. “I don’t think we’d ever run out of stories, between the lovely paths that Sherryl Woods laid out in the books. And then the added elements that we are able to bring in the TV writers’ room as well. I think we could tell season after season of amazing Sweet Magnolias stories.”

A second season has already been confirmed for Sweet Magnolias but a release date is yet to be announced.
